Trust Your Gut
Hi there, kewly kewls! Now, I’m sure y’all have heard the phrase “trust your gut.” Let me tell you this: as you start to grow up, this phrase makes SO MUCH SENSE. Especially for girls. Women’s intuition, baby! It could be anything like an answer on a test…”B feels right, I’m drawn to circle B, but maybe A is right?” Most likely, the answer was B. Or it could be about a boy. Do his wishy-washy answers and the way he won’t look you in the eye give you a weird feeling in your tummy? Girl, trust that feeling. Most likely, the boy’s no good. This happened to me recently with something as simple as a few dollars. I used my cash at a store and while I was paying with my cash, a voice inside my head said “don’t pay with cash, use your card” but I paid with cash anyway. And ya know what? That night I ended up at a restaurant that only accepted cash. I said out loud “I knew at the check-out that I should’ve used my debit card!” And of course this happens to me in bigger ways with friendships and boys. If I get a weird vibe from someone, it’s because there’s more to the story that I don’t know, but my gut is picking up on it. I’ve experienced it with guys when I feel they’re not being completely honest with me, but I choose to trust their words. But almost everytime, I should’ve gone with my guy. Same thing happens to my friends. We all say “I knew it! I knew from the start something wasn’t right with him! I should’ve trusted my guy and I wouldn’t have wasted my time with him!” We decide to use it as a learning experience. Learn to trust yourself, girls. Count on yourself.
